Car Insurance For Ladies Increasing in Popularity

Published: 18/02/10

If you are a lady looking for cheaper car insurance then you are in luck! Most insurance companies now have packages that are specifically designed for women drivers, and they have grown very popular within the last few years. The reason that insurers have specific packages for women is due to studies that show they make safer drivers compared to men and young drivers. Of course ladies are still in accidents, but the damage has been proven to be much less than what their male counterparts would cause, leading to less claims. That is why on average car insurance for ladies tends to be 30% lower than male car insurance in the same age group.

Now some may say that what insurers are doing is a form of discrimination and this has been challenged in the past. In fact in 2005, the European Union had a debate on whether insurers could legitimately have these tailored-made women-only insurance packages - and insurance companies were able to demonstrate statistically women are safer drivers making it fair to charge less for women’s car insurance.

Most insurance companies will advertise heavily and offer different policies depending on what you are looking to get covered. Apart from the usual third party options and fully comprehensive policies insurance companies now offer other cover options such as personal belongings, handbag cover and even after accident counseling. The amount one pays for a policy is really dependent on your car, age, and your previous claims history.

So ladies when shopping for a car insurance company look out for women-only packages and remember that lady car insurance quotes include legal covers as well. To even further lower your premium, park your car overnight in a garage, get an extra driving course and of course keep a clean driving record!
